(ci. iss-z5) This invention relates to a collapsible umbrella and ensure a simultaneous extension of stick and -oithekind wherein the stretchersareplvotedto ribs. the outer rib sections and supported by auxiliary 'I'he auxiliary struts are made of springy matestruts, and the invention consists essentially in rial and are formed with knees 26 whereby they, g connecting the upper ends of the struts to a sleeve on the closing of the umbrella, engage the stretch- 5 which is arranged to slide on the telescopic umers l and exert thereon an outward thrust wherebrella suck, by the re-opening of the umbrella is facilitated.

This arrangement has the advantage that, as -While the auxiliary struts 2li are connected*v the sleeve moves over the stick sections and the at one end, by means of the joints I9, to the y 10 catches therefor, a resistance will be oflered to stretcher I, the other end is connected to a sleeve 10 the sleeve which re-acts by means of the struts or auxiliary runner 21 which slides on the stick. on -the stretchers so as to extend the outer rib This sleeve is freely slidable.
